CUB: TOO CUTE

If there was one thing Alex knew, it was that he did not want to piss Wolf off. Wolf would murder him in a blink of an eye. However, Alex had been considered suicidal by many people. Alex had decided instead of going to meet up with the 'Super Asshole Service' men, as he called them, he would lay in bed and sleep. It was almost certain that Alex was suicidal. As he woke up being thrown out of his bed by a pissed off Wolf, Alex reflected that maybe it wasn't one of his best ideas to go to sleep. "Get up, be outside in 2 minutes." Wolf growled, stomping out and, surprisingly, shutting the door with enough force to show he was angry but not enough force to wake anyone else up. Alex was impressed by this display of obviously contained anger. His little Wolfie was learning how to control his anger.

Alex shoved his uniform on, his fingers slipping on the many buckles and buttons. He laced up his boots and stumbled out, raking his fingers through his hair in an attempt to sort out the mess it had become, he needed a haircut. His hair was far too long. Alex knew he was in a lot of trouble when he saw that Eagle, Fox and Snake had come with Wolf. Plus the evil smiles they all had on. Except Wolf, his was more like an evil glare. Now Alex thought about it, Wolf never smiled or laughed in his presence. Clearly, Wolf felt a strong, passionate dislike to him. But he didn't hate him, because hate was a very strong word.

"Good morning, Wolfie." Alex chirped loudly, smiling brightly at Wolf. The glare increased. "Aren't you just in a charming mood?"

"You didn't come last night." Wolf snapped, obviously not appreciating Alex's attempt at conversation.

"I'm sorry for cancelling our date." Alex replied. "I just feel that our relationship is extremely one-sided." Alex took a step back as Wolf's eye began to twitch. It wasn't that he was scared. He had been in more terrifying positions. The last time someone's eye began to twitch they exploded. Quite literally.

"You are running the damn obstacle course until I tell you to stop." Wolf growled lowly. Did Wolf do anything but growl? Alex reflected. Wolf is an extremely angry soldier.

"Okay." Alex said.

"Luckily for you, it rained while you were lazing about." Wolf smirked.

"Okay." Alex replied.

"Will you stop saying that?" Wolf snapped.

"I was always told, 'if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all'. I have nothing nice to say. However, I think you would be annoyed if I didn't reply." Alex explained.

"You piss me off with just being near me." Wolf snarled, glaring at the 14 year old boy.

"Too cute. You're denying the deep and passionate feelings of love you feel for me, I know."
